Found these at an old inn.? The wedge like thing is about 4 inches long, heavy,? and looks like it slid over something and then was held by a pin.? Has USA letters on it and HENLE or something like that going down it.? The pin looks to be silver ... it originally had a long thing like a pin.? It broke off after jabbing me in the thumb.? ?Any ideas as to what these items really are?? The pin looks like it opened up somehow for some reason but it is hard to imagine without the rest of it.

thanks for any help,

The iron thing looks like the tooth from a back-hoe bucket. no idea about the button or broach thing. Lloydd

Hi Lloydd.

Thanks for the reply. I did not realize that those were hollow and replaceable. I thought they were pretty much welded right into the bucket ... pretty much one piece with the bucket. But I did a quick search and found the concept ....
